The speed difference from an SSD comes mostly from its random access speed and not sequential read. That means that even on SATA2 an SSD is unbelievably faster than any HDD. Unless the game is constantly loading huge files, there will not be a lot of diffrence in overall time savings between SATA 2 and 3. The difference to HDDs will always be huge though.

True but also not really the case. For games like bloodborne, Just cause 3...etc or any other game that employs a system where chunks of the game are loaded at a time and what you are looking at is a loading screen, SATA 3 support and with an SSD will make a world of difference. Almost cut such load times down to about half. for games that stream data in mostly, the best this may yield is less pop in but that's another matter. 

But how big are those chunks? If they're anything less than 1GB it will not make a world of difference.
